News: Lara is now headed to next gen consoles according to the Head of Product Development and Studios at Square Enix.

Tomb Raider was released earlier this year and was met by both critical and commercial success. With that mind it shouldn't be any surprise to hear that Square Enix has confirmed a sequel is on the way and it will be on next gen consoles:

“Hi - you may have read today that a next-generation sequel to Tomb Raider is in the works. We’re very excited to confirm that the team has started working on telling the next chapter in Lara’s tale. It’s still early days, so I’m afraid I can’t provide any further details for now save my assurance that we’re not resting on our laurels and acclaim from Tomb Raider’s recent successes, but working hard to raise the bar even higher and re-affirm the faith you’ve shown.”

That statement came from Darrell Gallagher, Head of Product Development and Studios. What would you like to see in the next Tomb Raider game? What kind of direction would you like to see the franchise go? Tell us what you think below.
